Arsenal vs Chelsea: Second Leg Showdown
Arsenal hold a narrow 3-2 advantage heading into tonight’s second leg after a breathless first meeting at Stamford Bridge. Mikel Arteta’s side raced into an early lead in west London and managed to keep Chelsea at arm’s length despite a late fightback from the Blues.
The Gunners arrive knowing that a place in the EFL Cup final is within touching distance. They remain firmly in contention across multiple competitions this season and will be keen to secure the first available silverware of the campaign. Home advantage could prove decisive, especially with Arsenal unbeaten in their last 10 meetings with Chelsea in all competitions.
Chelsea, however, travel to north London full of belief. Under Liam Rosenior, the Blues have found momentum quickly, winning six of their last seven matches and producing a dramatic comeback victory in the Premier League at the weekend. They will need to overturn the deficit, but their recent form suggests this tie is far from over.

With the aggregate score finely balanced, tonight’s clash has all the ingredients for another intense London derby under the lights.
Man City vs Newcastle: Magpies Still Fighting
Manchester City welcome Newcastle to the Etihad on Wednesday holding a 2-0 lead from the first leg at St James’ Park. Goals from Antoine Semenyo and Rayan Cherki have put Pep Guardiola’s side in a commanding position as they look to reach another domestic cup final.
Newcastle face a huge task, needing to score early to give themselves a chance of a comeback. While Eddie Howe’s side have shown resilience in this competition in recent seasons, City’s dominant home record and experience at this stage make them strong favourites to see the tie out.
